ACIDIFIED OCEAN EXPOSURE RESPONSIVE GENE IN SCLERONEPHTHYA GRACILLIMUM AND THE METHOD FOR DIAGNOSING THE COASTAL ENVIRONMENT POLLUTION USING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to scleronephthya gracillimum derived gene responding to changes of ocean acidity, and a method for diagnosing changes of coastal environment using the same. Specifically, as a gene cluster derived from scleronephthya gracillimum indicates specific expression alteration according to ocean acidity changes owing to climate changes, it can be used as a microarray and a kit to check possibility of exposure in acidified ocean caused by ocean acidity changes by using the gene cluster as a biomarker.
